Selected projects with stack, context and writeups.

PFEE — Navigation de drones

Development of navigation capabilities in constrained environments for drones. Final-year engineering project carried out for a company, started in September 2026. The subject is under a confidentiality agreement: this page is deliberately kept brief.

OPTAVIM

Full information system of a fictional multi-site company (head office, branches and remote workers linked to a central datacenter), built from scratch from the pfSense firewall to the business apps: a hand-built kubeadm Kubernetes cluster, Active Directory, Keycloak SSO and 2FA. Security thought through from the start.

EPITA Corp

The fil-rouge of the SecDevOps major: we build an enterprise IT system on a real Proxmox host, then we make it live. Simulated attacks, cloud migration, post-acquisition merger, and at every step the real decisions to make, both technical and business.

Mir[AI]ge: sending the bill back to the AI agents that attack you

Winner of the EPITA Rennes × OVHcloud hackathon. Instead of blocking the LLM agents that scan your infra in a loop, we detect, separate and distract them into a fake environment to burn their token budget. From an OVH-wired PoC to an agnostic open-source tool.

OPTAVIM: building a complete company information system

The full information system of a fictional multi-site company, built from scratch: from the HA pfSense firewall to the business apps, with a hand-built kubeadm Kubernetes cluster, Active Directory, a Keycloak SSO and 2FA. Security thought through from the start.
